Talk about upside-down install of a bayonet
« on: April 29, 2022, 02:13:17 PM »
We've all seen plenty of upside-down spike bayonets on Chinese SKSs, but this is a first, for me anyway. Guy has a Chinese SKS, six digit ghost no less, in a Tapco stock and has the blade bayonet on upside-down.  :o banghead1 headbang2 rofl



My Avatar is a pic of the real "Ghost" SKS in honor of xxxsks(joe). It is a pic of a fully decked out SKS in Capco hunter's kit. This was mine, the only other pic I had ever seen of one was Joe's.

Heck, they are easy to put on upside down!
Most everyone has some SKS related skeletons in their closet I know (even ift hey don't want to admit it!)

I've got stories of wrenching on the crossbolt with a screwdriver trying to get it off when I was a noob.  :-[
Everyone has to start somewhere! ;)

Yeah, tru dat. And once we get experienced in said firearm we get to poke a little fun at the new noobs, LOL. It's kind of like a ritual/hazing/pay it forward type thing.

Maybe he wants to thrust up with it or if you grab for his rifle you'll get laced open. Dunno. Folks have their reasons for doing odd things.
When guns are outlawed only outlaws will have guns.

I use a longer Yugo on the T6, just because it fits the channel better. PAX
